    Angry Proxy and Windows update

    I have an old Proxy, yes, Proxy server on my network. I have one of my Tech's configuring our cisco software to work without it but in the mean time I need the ability to access the Windows Update site. Once it starts "searching" the machine I get an error stating it can't find the site. I've looked everywhere and don't have the time to spend another day on the issue. Anyone know of the fix for this besides taking proxy offline, which, at the moment, is not an option.

    Thanks in advance.
